C5                                                F5                             C5
I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night, alive as you and me
          F5                                     C5
Says I, But Joe, you?re 10 years dead
   D5                             G5         
I never died, says he.  I never died, says he


C5                                                 F5                                     C5
The Copper Bosses killed you Joe, they shot you Joe, says I
           F5                                C5
Takes more than guns to kill a man
          D5                       G5  
Says Joe, I didn't die. says Joe, I didn't die


C5                                               F5                                  C5
And standing there as big as life, and smiling with his eyes
            F5                                      C5
Joe says, What they could never kill
         D5                     G5
Went on to organize, went on to organize


C5                                           F5                         C5
From San Diego up to Maine, in every mine and mill
F5                                                C5
Where workers stand up for their rights
     D5                                  G5
It's there you'll find Joe Hill, it's there you'll find Joe Hill


C5                                                F5                             C5
I dreamed I saw Joe Hill last night, alive as you and me
           F5                                     C5
Says I, But Joe, you?re 10 years dead
   D5                             G5         
I never died, says he.  I never died, says he
